Question

How to keep captive files secure on a website?

Hello,

I created a Captivate interaction and I plan to post it on a website and allow customers to access it there.

I do not want anyone to be able to download my work and copy it or send it around.

Can Captivate files be downlaoded from a website?

If so, what measure can you take to prevent this?

Thanks

Hello,

Do not know if this will answer your question but you'll never post a Captivate-file to a website, you'll publish a SWF-file. That means that even if one downloads the file he is not able to change anything unless he finds a way to reconvert it to perhaps a FLA-file and then edit it in Flash. I'm not aware of converters to a CP-file anywhere.

Sorry if this is not the answer you expect.

Hi, thanks for the info.

Sounds like anyone can download the SWF file and although they can't edit it easily, they would be able to view the SWF repeatedly and post it to file sharing networks.

Is there way to prevent downloading the SWF file?

Thanks.
